Home office at the head of the bed

Well designed and positioned, the home office of this apartment created by architect Júlia Guadix does not interfere with circulation and is out of sight of bed resters.  With little space in the property, the work area was located behind the bedroom headboard.

In homes or apartments without a specific home office room, they can be redirected to aa multifunctional proposal. This is the case of the bedroom which, being a room with greater privacy, facilitates concentration on work or study. It corresponds to the idea of ​​receiving a corner to work.

Based on this premise, Júlia designed an unconventional office, but strategically designed to be practical, compact and invisible during rest periods. Inserted behind the headboardthe home office does not invade the other rooms: the hollow partition, made of perforated sheet steel, as well as the sliding door, make the room more private at bedtime.

“It wasn’t enough just to find the ideal place, we also had to meet the needs of the resident. We invested in a carpentry shop with drawers, cabinets and shelves which serve to keep the work environment organized, favoring better concentration and performance”, he underlines.

Office

Closets can also become a home office workstation.  Offices, as they are known, are a good solution to overcome the lack of space in the rooms.  In this project, architect Júlia Guadix used one of the cabinets to set up a workspace for her client.

Longing for a second office, the resident of this apartment couldn’t find a place that would fit it into its surroundings. Faced with this mission, Júlia managed to find a small space in her client’s room to be able to carry out her activities. Inside the closet, she has a office call yours.

“It is nothing more than a home office inside the wardrobe: ‘wardrobe + office’. There we include the table, computer and wardrobe with drawers in a compact and functional way”, explains the architect. Even in the bedroom, the cloffick does not interfere with the rest of the resident couple, as it is enough just to close the door to the crayfish for it to become invisible.

Home office and carpentry planned

Carpentry is an excellent ally for those who want to set up a small home office.  In the master bedroom of this apartment, architect Júlia Guadix has strategically used wood to compose the working environment of the residents.

To finish and add a nice decor to the work area, Julia installed two shelves. The architect also thought about efficient lighting.

“Since we don’t have false ceilings and there’s only one light point in the center of the room, we took advantage of the shelf to recess an LED strip, which ensures perfect lighting for the work,” he recalls. Since it is a restful environment, she has been careful to design a small and clean home office, without interfering with the relaxation of the couple.

home office booked

Even small, the home office can be located in a reserved place and without connection to other environments.  In her apartment, architect Júlia Guadix used part of the living room to organize her workspace.  Through the drywall, the architect managed to separate the rooms.

Just like her clients, Júlia also has a home office space. But instead of a corner in the living room or bedroom, the architect created a small room intended for work. Measuring 1.75 x 3.15m, it was possible to fit it into the social area of ​​the 72m² apartment, where the plasterboard wall made the parting with the living room. The other wall has ceramic bricks.

In a small space in the social area, the professional has installed a MDF wood worktop which follows the entire length of the window wall. Just above, the narrowest shelf houses the Funko Pop dolls that make up the furniture.

To help with organization, a chest of drawers stores office supplies. Another important detail is the Roman blinds which controls the entry of light, allowing for greater visual comfort while working.

“The home office was divided equally in two so that the couple could work side by side. The wooden bench not only supports the notebooks, but also the residents’ collectible Funko Pops which served as decorative items,” concludes the ‘architect.
